Surveytime Review – Worth Your Time or Not? (Full Truth)

Surveytime claims you can use it to get instantly rewarded for completing online surveys.

But is Surveytime a scam or is it really a fast paying survey site?

I have joined and tested it myself, and have also been paid by it.

This means that it is legit since I know from personal experience it pays. That does, however, not mean it is necessarily worth it for you.

In this Surveytime review, I will show exactly what you get and how it works so you will easily be able to decide if it is a site for you or not.

What is Surveytime and what does the site offer?

Surveytime is a very simple and easy-to-use survey site that offers you to share your opinion in paid surveys and get paid for this.

It is so simple that it almost confused me when I first joined:-) This might sound strange but there is not much information on the site, so I was even quite suspicious when I first saw it.

I still decided to join, and as already mentioned, it definitely turned out to be a legit site as I have now been paid by it myself several times.

But to know if it will be worth it for you or not, let’s look at exactly what it offers and how it works.

It is, as mentioned, very simple, but this might also confuse you at first. There are some steps you need to take to earn, and I will explain these below.

Step 1 – Register and confirm your email

To get started at Surveytime you, of course, first have to register. You probably already figured that out yourself:-)

The reason I am still mentioning this step here is that the registration process is a bit different from most other survey sites.

It is very easy to join by just giving your email and name.

It is, however, different in the way that you do not have to choose your own password which kind of confused me at first.

After you join, one will automatically be generated for you and send to you via email.

Also, as usually on survey sites, you need to confirm your email. This step is important on Surveytime – without confirming your email, you will not be able to get your rewards out.

So these are the initial steps to join. Still, quite straight forward even though a bit different. What confused me at first was, however, the next step.

Step 2 – Fill out a profile survey

The next step on Surveytime is a bit different from most other survey sites.

Right after you join, you are asked to take a survey to fill out your profile so they can match you with surveys.

Right after you join, you have to take a profile survey.

Most survey sites have a profile you can fill out to get a better chance to qualify for surveys so there is nothing unusual in this in itself.

But on Surveytime you have to fill it out before you even get to the members area. This is a bit unusual to be asked to spend 15 minutes to do an initial survey before you have even seen what it offers in the members area.

This honestly made me a bit suspicious.

During the profile survey, I was also asked the same questions several times and it made me a bit annoyed and I was not sure what was going on.

The reason for this was, however, probably to check the consistency of my answers to see if I answer surveys honestly. So if you join, make sure to answer honestly so you can give consistent answers.

Luckily it did not take too long to fill out. It says it should take you around 15 minutes but for me it only took around 10 minutes.

I was honestly about to give up during the initial survey because I was a bit confused about what was going on and not sure if it was legit, but I was also curious and had to finish it to see what would happen:-)

I am glad I did. Because even though the initial sign up process confused me a bit, it turned out it had some really good survey options once you are a member.

So make sure to fill out the survey profiler if you join – it will be worth it on the other side:-)

Step 3 – Choose surveys

I was very curious to see what Surveytime actually offered on the inside.

It actually turned out to be quite a lot of survey opportunities. There is nothing else on the platform or in the members area. Just a list of the available surveys.

Examples of surveys on Surveytime.

There is not even a profile where you can edit your password or anything like this. There is just a list of surveys.

For me, there was right away a decent list of about 8-10 available surveys. It, however, changes all the time and also depends on the country.

So there might be fewer or more for you. There might even be times when there are none, but then you can check back later.

The way Surveytime is created is very simple and the simplicity makes it very easy to use.

Not just the way you just get a list of available surveys, but also the payout method as we will get to in the next section.

But you get a list of the surveys and you can see a time estimate. In my experience, the time estimate for each survey is fairly good.

It might take a little longer or a little shorter. But for the surveys I have taken, it was close to the estimate.

The surveys are taken through third-party providers, so you click a survey and are then taken to another site where you complete the survey.

After you have completed a survey, you will be taken back to Surveytime and can see the reward and decide how you want it.

How do you get paid?

The payout method is another area where Surveytime is a bit different from many other sites.

The first thing you need to know is that all surveys give the same reward. Every time you complete a survey, you will get $1.

I have tried to get $1 for a 2-minute survey and also get $1 for a 7-minute survey. There is no differentiation which, of course, makes it very easy to know exactly what you get.

Some surveys will this way have a very high reward compared to other survey sites, while others might have a slightly lower reward. But overall the reward in relation to time spent is very good on Surveytime compared to many other sites.

As soon as you have completed a survey, you will be asked how you want to get your reward. The type of reward available depends on your country. But most countries offer PayPal as one of the options.

PayPal is one of the payout options in most countries.

Some countries also offer other payout methods. In the US, you can for example also choose to get paid with gift cards to Amazon, Target and Decathlon in addition to PayPal cash.

PayPal as a payout method is used on many survey sites and is, in my opinion, a great way to get your rewards. And how you get your money like this on Surveytime is something I have not seen before.

As you can see in the image above, right after completing a survey, you have to choose how you want your money. I chose to get paid through PayPal.

I then had to verify my phone number. According to Surveytime, this is to protect your rewards and they will never use your number for anything else.

It was only for the first payout I had to confirm the phone number by using a code I received in a text message, so not a problem at all. And I have also not experienced the number has been shared or anything like this as it sometimes happens on the shady survey sites.

Anyway, it took less than 1 minute and once that was done and I chose PayPal, I received an email just a few minutes later that said I had now received my reward.

I received my payment only a few minutes after completing my first survey.

There are other survey sites like, where you can get your rewards already when you have earned $1 and get them super fast.

But it is the first time I have seen it like this where you right away get the money transferred and do not actively choose when you want a payout.

I think this has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that you will get your money right away. I like quick paying survey sites compared to the sites where you sometimes have to wait for weeks to have the survey confirmed before you can get your reward.

However, I also like being able to decide myself when I want the payout. I think it can be nice to collect a bit of money in the survey site account and then get them paid out at once.

But overall, I think it is great with such a quick payout and it is one of the fastest I have seen, but if you prefer being able to wait and gather money in your account before you get a payout, then Surveytime is not for you.

How much money can you make?

There is, in theory, no limit to how many surveys you can complete on Surveytime as long as there are available surveys.

But there are, of course, not unlimited surveys available.

How many that will be available depends on a lot on the country you live in. But in my experience, it has a decent amount available and it also has surveys available in countries where it usually can be difficult to find any.

So it is definitely a way to make some extra cash on the side. But it will, as all other paid survey sites, not be a way to make a full-time income online and not something that will make you rich.

But Surveytime can be a nice way to get to share your opinion and earn some nice extra cash at the same time.

Can you use it on mobile?

Surveytime.io is fully mobile optimized and the website itself works well on mobile.

So if you want to earn by taking surveys on the go, this is possible with Surveytime.

Just be aware that since the surveys will be taken on websites of different providers, it is not sure all of them will be fully optimized for mobile.

Most of them definitely will be possible to take on mobile, but just be aware that there can also be surveys where it takes a bit a scrolling in and out.

Who can join Surveytime?

Something I really like about Surveytime is that it is available worldwide.

There will, however, be different amounts of available surveys from country to country. But any country can join and it offers good opportunities even for countries where it usually can be more difficult to find survey opportunities.

The platform is also available in different languages. At the top of the screen, you can choose the language.

The language settings on Surveytime.

At the moment of writing this review, it is available in English, Russian, and Chinese.

But many of the surveys will actually be in your own local language even if one of these languages is not your mother tongue.

Can you get support?

One thing that is a bit strange about Surveytime is that I could not find info contact info for their support on the website.

There is an FAQ section where you can get answers for most questions, but there is no contact info.

I, however, managed to find an email address to their support in their privacy policy. So if you need support from them it is “support @ surveytime.io”.

A bit strange it is so hidden, but since it is such a simple site it is also possible that you will never need support. But now at least you know there is a support email in case you should need it at some point.

I had a few questions myself and contacted their support. It is very quick at getting back to you and very helpful, and this is a very good quality of a survey site.

Final verdict

Surveytime is definitely legit as it pays out and it pays out quickly.

This does not necessarily mean it is the best site for you. So let’s finish by summing up the pros and cons so you can get a better overview to help you decide.

Pros:

Free to join

Available worldwide

Pays out very quickly

Many daily opportunities

Very easy to use

Cons:

You cannot decide when you want a payout yourself

Overall, I think Surveytime is very user-friendly once you get used to how it works differently from most other survey sites.

If it is the right platform for you depends on a lot of the preferences you have in relation to payout methods.

If you like getting your rewards right away, then Surveytime gives some pretty good rewards for short surveys and you get your money right away.

If you prefer gathering more earnings in your account before cashing out, you should consider other survey sites instead.

Thank you for the review. I did to cash once but of course like all sites I’ve been screening out lately. But yes they paid out immediately to PayPal. I myself couldn’t find the support email either so I’m glad you provided that I did have a problem with a couple surveys that we’re broken but thanks
